Cyber Security
Details
Cybersecurity is the protection of internet-connected systems such as hardware, software and data from cyberthreats. The practice is used by individuals and enterprises to protect against unauthorized access to data centres and other computerized systems.
A strong cybersecurity strategy can provide a good security posture against malicious attacks designed to access, alter, delete, destroy or extort an organization's or user's systems and sensitive data. Cybersecurity is also instrumental in preventing attacks that aim to disable or disrupt a system's or device's operations.
What are the elements of cybersecurity and how does it work?
The cybersecurity field can be broken down into several different sections, the coordination of which within the organization is crucial to the success of a cybersecurity program.
​
Maintaining cybersecurity in a constantly evolving threat landscape is a challenge for all organizations.
​
Traditional reactive approaches, in which resources were put toward protecting systems against the biggest known threats, while lesser-known threats were undefended, is no longer a sufficient tactic.
​
To keep up with changing security risks, a more proactive and adaptive approach is necessary.
